THis deal seems to help Utah this year, but will cost them more in the following years. Why wouldn't they just let Boozer expire or trade him to a team with cap space for a draft pick? They just signed Milsap, so unless Lee is willing to take $6 mill per, I doubt they want to pay him $9 mill to be their backup.
Utah is a contending team need depth up front. Are Okur and Milsap playing 48 minutes a game? If you can play PF/C off the bench there is 30 minutes a night there. What contender wouldnt want David Lee in that role?

Utah has an $80mm plus payroll and this deal doesnt add $, rather saves them $9 right out of the box this year.

With cash thrown in JJ's contract the following year becomes easier to take.

Utah loses a player that doesnt want to be there (Boozer) and another thats pretty much dont (Harpring) for JJ/Lee. This makes them a better BB team.

This is easily the best mock trade ever posted on this website. Party at Bips with the little white dog to celebrate.

The question is do you want to pay a combined 40M for your front court per year? (Okur, Boozer, Lee, Milsap)

The answer is, well, no.

So why does Utah need Lee?

The strange thing is that when a lot of posters on this board talk about Lee on another team they say well…with Lee they get a good player and will be better bbol club.
When the same posters talk about David on the Knicks - they said we need to get read of him to get better.
Isn’t it confusing?

really? because I am quiet sure I have never said getting rid of Lee makes us a better ball club. Ever.

The only scenario I really see where trading Lee really helps us is in something like the above trade where we dump JJ in the process.

Lee is a very very good ball player that does somethings really well. He's a great passer, rebounder and finisher. I very much want to see Lee part of the rotation for many years. Its got to make sense in what we are trying to do
